Free Agent Wish List

As with the Dolphins, there may well be more players from other teams released over the next few days. But, at this point, here's the ideal signings for Miami, imo:

1) Chris Dielman - OG - I think he fits with Cameron's offense and he'll improve even more under Houck. He fills a major need on the interior of the OL. Gotta go after him.

2) Joey Porter - OLB - Though Thomas is the best OLB/DE out there, and is younger - Porter may actually fit better as he can play LB better than Thomas and he will be much cheaper than Thomas (though he won't be a huge bargain). Thomas is going to be expensive and teams like the niners, with a ton of cap space, would be tough to compete against. Porter would immediately fill the weakest spot on the front 7 of the D (Spragan's). We should take a major run at him.

3) LT - McIntosh - he may be the best LT available. It will be hard to get a top LT in the draft who can come in immediately and play. Leonard Davis can play OT or OG, but he's an underacheiver and would struggle at LT.

4) WR - With McCardell, Horn and others out there, it's possible we could get a good, reliable WR - possibly even a very good one in Horn, for less money than we are paying either Chambers or Booker. I would not mind seeing an entire overhaul at WR (except for Welker) - this has been a position of extraordinary inconsistency. I'm all for a fresh start.

I really like your ideas...I really hope we get Porter as he is my #1 player to get...Imagine having three great leaders on our defense to teach the young guys what football is all about...I also like Brandon Stokley....I did not know that he was a free agent...

like 1,2,3 but why mccardell when there's stallworth? i know he's expensive and injury prone but he's way younger than keenan, even though i have nothing against keenan

Horn is old. McCardell is aw well. I don't think we will overhaul our WR corps. I hope we don't sign guys like Horn or McCardell or even Moulds.
